Property was beautifully decorated and clutter-free. Kitchen was equipped with everything one might require. Many windows in the property enabled us to enjoy the lakeside views and sunset and ice on the water. Plenty of paper products and linens available. Comfortable beds.

From start to finish our experience at The Bickle Cottage was absolutely fabulous! A friend travelling from out of the country stayed here and I was so excited to share it with my book club, girlfriends! The cottage is so very lovely. The many windows wrapped around the cottage make it incredibly bright. It was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and incredibly welcoming. The kitchen/bathrooms were well stocked. We enjoyed sitting outside during the day and evening. We were also lucky enough to be able to swim in September! The hosts were gracious and communication was prompt. The information left for us not only gave a detailed guide to our stay, it shared the history of The Bickle Cottage. This made us feel at home. Our experience was nothing short of BRILLIANT! Looking forward to booking a family stay!

Steps to the Water! Accessible, Pet Friendly & Full of Heart

My mom hasn’t been well for some time, and it’s been years since we’ve been able to take her on a real vacation. I was searching for somewhere close to the city, with easy access to the water, main‑floor amenities for her comfort, and somewhere that would welcome our pets. I can’t even put into words how perfectly this place delivered.Watching my mom step into the water—over and over again—for the first time in years, it was something I wasn’t sure we’d ever see again, and it meant the world to us.The Bickell sisters are truly something special: warm, thoughtful, and so attentive. They didn’t just give us a vacation; they gave us memories we’ll cherish forever. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Cozy Place

We stayed here for a weekend for our annual sisters trip. The booking was smooth, instructions were clear, and the cottage had everything we needed. Since it was February, we appreciated all of the cozy blankets and pillows for our use. You can tell that the Bickle sisters put a lot of effort into making sure you have a fantastic experience.

Perfect Winter Weekend

It was my husband’s 50th birthday and I surprised him with a weekend getaway with friends & family. The Bickle sisters were very hospitable and I was able to do an early check in to set up everything before coming back to the cottage with my husband. The location was perfect bc it was 1 hour outside of the gta. The cottage was very clean and love the decor in the home. You can really feel the amount of love that’s put into their cottage. It was great that we were able to have a fire outside in the month of January and during the day walked outside on the frozen lake. I’m sure we will be back again. Cristina & Francois

Amazing Modern Cottage

We had an absolutely great time at this cottage! It was even more impressive in person than the pictures - the Bickle sister thoughts about every minute detail and made everything easy, from getting the kayaks/ canoes to throwing away the garbage. We would recommend this to everyone, and definitely stay again! Liam
